Gu Sheng's eyes wandered around, and a trace of surprise suddenly flashed across his eyes. By such a coincidence, he saw a... slightly familiar figure.
"Why is he here... No, no, it's not him. He shouldn't be that young. Could it be..."
Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with color, a smile appeared on his lips, and he walked towards the group of people who were preparing to come to the dock to unload the goods.
"Hey! Those of you there, hurry up and move!"
"What's going on so early in the morning? No one has eaten!"
"Hurry up, hurry up, let's start!"
…
At the dock in the early morning, there were already many coolies in rough clothes and yellow clothes working. Gang members in black coats were shouting and supervising the coolies at the dock. These people were all peripheral members of the local gangs.
As the leading international city during the Republic of China, Shanghai had many concessions and bustling docks. Most of these docks located along the Huangpu River were in the hands of local gangs. Even after the island nation occupied Shanghai, this situation did not exist.
How many changes.
There was a big change in Shanghai last year. The island country's planes bombed Shanghai, and the army invaded the Central Plains. The Nationalist Government of the Central Plains lost a battle with it, and a national war began that swept the entire land of China.
This war has been fought to this day, and neither the north nor the south has calmed down. Shanghai is occupied by island countries, which have the heart of a snake swallowing an elephant, and want to annex the land of China in a small area.
This battle was a catastrophe for the land of China, and it was originally extremely difficult to fight. However, when Gu Sheng came over last time, the few back-ups he left behind finally came in handy.
Marshal Zhang from the Northeast was hit by an ambush and explosion when he left the Imperial Capital, and died on the spot. After that, the island nation started its invasion. Marshal Zhang of the Zhang family had difficulty controlling the situation, and finally chose to evacuate the three northeastern provinces.
At a critical moment, Marshal Wu, the former Zhili clique who was originally from the countryside but had trained the Wenxian arsenal team, stepped forward to take charge of the overall situation in the north. With the elite soldiers and horses of the Wenxian Garrison Command as the core, the Zhili clique's flag reappeared in the north, and all areas from Northeast to Beizhili
Falling into the hands of Marshal Wu, the situation of warlord separatism in the north returned.
At that time, the Nationalist Government in the South was full of problems, internal strife was constant, and it had too much time to take care of itself. It chose to ignore and admit defeat when the North did not change its flag and still held high the blue sky and white sun flag.
This situation lasted for several years. The island country tried to invade the Northeast from the land of three Koreas several times, but was blocked by Marshal Wu's elite troops. The situation was extremely complicated for a while.
Until last year, after the island country saw that the original slow invasion method was ineffective, it chose to attack with troops, splitting its troops into two groups to attack the north and south of China.
The island invaders stationed in the Three Koreans attacked the northeastern and northern provinces wildly, and the island invaders' navy bombed Shanghai to open a gap. The Battle of Shanghai took place in March. The Nationalist Government retreated and retreated. After the island nation advanced again, it finally stopped at the land of Jinling.
It turned out that Marshal Wu from the north sent reinforcements to attack the island bandits after temporarily repelling them, and finally saved the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.
After the Battle of Jinling, the war between the island invaders and China never stopped. Because China had been weak for many years, especially its navy, it had almost no qualified combat power. The coastal area, both north and south, was occupied by the island invaders.
land.
However, both the north and the south are determined to resist the bandits, but the island bandits have made slow progress in the interior of China. The war situation has remained stalemate until now, and the situation has become more complicated and changeable.
But these general trends in the world are not so important to Gu Sheng now. The potential of this world is limited, and it is about to enter the stage where low demons are almost at the end of the law. The level of science and technology is not as good as the current world, the potential is limited, and the value is even greater.
It was limited, and there was no idea of letting Gu Sheng continue to pay attention.
He has actually left quite a lot of things in this world, and he has changed quite a few things. There is no need to be perfect, like completely wiping out the island bandits.
Yes, if he wanted to, he could indeed wipe out all the island bandits in this world, and then what! It was as if he was trying to reverse the trend, and China, which had not transformed, was still so backward, and he gained the disgust of the world.
Yes, even if the island bandits have done many evil things, their wanton killing will still arouse disgust in the world.
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs.
From the perspective of the world, these wars are just civil wars between races within the world. No matter how much the losses are, it is still... a natural behavior.
But when Gu Sheng intervened and caused a large number of island pirates to die, he was interfering with the world and causing serious consequences. Apart from reaping the disgust of the world, he really gained little benefit.
If he were the kind of reincarnation that destroys human beings, he might get some benefits by constantly destroying people and using living beings to refine things, but he is not, and there is no need to do such thankless things.
Therefore, this time he came to this world just to fulfill the agreement and was not planning to create any extraneous problems.
"Hey! What's wrong with you? Why are you here?"
Gu Sheng walked towards the figure that was very similar to the one in his memory, but someone came to stop him halfway. One of the gang members supervising the dock, a gangster in a black coat and white lining, blocked the way, holding a thick stick in his hand.
The stick pointed at him.
"I'm looking for someone!"
After Gu Sheng glanced at this gangster-looking guy, he withdrew his gaze and was about to turn away from this person and continue moving forward. Things here had already caused some commotion, and many eyes were paying attention.
"Looking for someone? Come here to find someone, you kid is a liar!"
This gangster didn't seem to believe Gu Sheng's words. He raised the wooden stick in his hand and said, "Looking at your looks, you should be a guy with status. Don't mind your own business. There is nothing to find here. Let's go quickly."
Let’s go!!!”
The gangster drove them away impatiently, the thick wooden stick in his hand whirring, as if he was preparing to drive Gu Sheng away.
Gu Sheng's brows moved when he noticed his intention. After sensing it for a while, he made some guesses and grabbed the thick wooden stick in the man's hand.
"Get away!!!"
The gangster didn't expect that Gu Sheng would grab his stick. After he reacted, he naturally used all his strength to snatch it. However, no matter how hard he tried, the thick wooden stick remained motionless in Gu Sheng's hand.
This gangster was also furious. He grabbed the wooden stick with both hands and kicked his feet hard on the ground. Who knew that he used too much force and did not expect that the wooden stick had been entangled by him for too long and was a little too smooth. He stumbled and slipped over without being able to catch it.
, the whole person leaned up and smashed onto a pile of boxes.
“Ouch~~~”
The man screamed in pain, covering his shoulder that had hit the edge of the large wooden box. He used his other hand to hold on to the wooden box for strength. After he stood up reluctantly, he kept rubbing his shoulder with one hand, trying to alleviate some of the pain.
